Archive on 4: Archive Fever

A live edition of the BBC Radio 4 archiver series from 15 April 2017 in which cultural historian Matthew Sweet looks at the nature of archive material and how we use it. This programme was not intended for a repeat broadcast nor available as to Listen Again. This is my recording of it from my own radio archive.
Produced by Martin Williams with contributions from William Basinski, Mike Figgis, Christopher Frayling, Aleks Krotoski, Hanif Kureishi, Andy Martin, Joanna Norledge, Caroline Shenton and Carolyn Steedman. Music by Rhodri Davies.

How ironic that this episode ended up on UA-cam and can be enjoyed for an indeterminate period of time... just goes to show, once we send something out there into the world, we have very little control over what happens to it.
